Journey to Jeddah and return home

Today marks the end of your Hajj Package in 2020. You will check-out of your 5* Star hotel in al-Madīnah and we will travel to Jeddah Airport where you will fly back to the United Kingdom.

Just returning from Hajj h1440 with Zam Zam Travels - I must admit I had a lot of expectations, and they were met and surpassed by the team - I even got an upgraded to a suite rather than my booked double room and then a private taxi to Jeddah airport I wasn’t expecting.

You as the pilgrim will need to put a lot of hard work in physically. Leave the organisation to the professionals, and you will enjoy your visit like I did .الحمد لله

Looking forward to my next trip.

Taf Malik

Hajj 1440 Pilgrim

This trip was the first time we have booked with Zam Zam Travels, and we are so happy with them and would recommend them as this was my first time coming to Hajj. I was anxious about how a company would treat us.

From start to finish Brother Sharif, bless him, kept us informed.

I look forward booking with Zam Zam in the future and will be recommending them to my family and friends.

Sonia Riasat

Hajj 1440 Pilgrim

Alhamdullilah the best experience I could really ask for.

We were treated with such respect and dealt with such safety, not once was I there to complain about anything, as Ameer would always deal with us in such a quick response and would literally help us with anything we were stuck with.

It was not just Ameer, but all the leaders in the group looked after us with an amazing effort, I would definitely recommend these guys!
